This film has captured my sordid taste for sibling rivalry ever since ‘jalousies’ were invented and the word jealousy was defined as synonym to resentment. The film made me realize how silly sibling rivalry can be; they live in the darkness of the present and the light in the lost love of the past.
The dark tale of a scary film noir in a warner brothers classical sibling rivalry series in the mid 1950-1960’s. During the era of American film transition from dubbing to full sound to from big-screens to Television.
In the context of social politics the dark and the blonde haired seem to be in competition not only for supremacy and control over something beyond their realm more so the ancient love that once connived with the darkness of new age transition has never failed to open the eyes of only a few but of many. Like the leadership of North America seem to explain that the balance of good and evil will not be judged by the influential or immune to justice but rather the former slave that once served both houses of supreme beings will now hammer the gavel.
In an Asian social context; wherein the balance of power seem unjust; hence no president or statesman with an exception of a few like President Ramon Magsaysay and President Ferdinand Marcos and the few first commonwealth leaders are rich and amusingly well-breed, if not coming from a prominent family they’ve come from a colorful past that they become patrons of socialist colonization; which in theory is like legalized incorporation of Government or state in proper perspective; no offense but it is simply just time and time only can tell.
The ending of the film Baby Jane Dancing in the shore of LA beach with strangers, unknown of her former luster, as Blanche slept to the elegance of death, free from her surfing to save Baby Jane from her noir past; hence the question is death a promise of freedom or simply a next level of unknown truth?-as Don Quixote suggest.
